Definitions

  • a feature film is sprinkled with a number of advertising blocks W 1 to W n distributed over its playing time.
  • Such an advertising block W k needs data units D k,1 to D k,m for its transmission. If only one type of advertising is sent for the entire public, the advertising blocks are transmitted as part of one transmission channel. If the various types of advertising (per advertising block) are to be distinguished, the respective data units are sent out in different subchannels.
  • Each receiver selects one or more additional channel in addition to the main channel: Channel Data units (slots) Main channel Content of the feature film
  • Subchannel 2 “Alcoholic drinks” advertising . . .
  • Subchannel w “Domestic” advertising
